hey 6gc'z,
Been on 6gc.net since last year, and i've always wanted a red top. Much like a Honda Type R and a Nissan Skyline engine. Although toyota are alot better  Nwayz i've got a few dillemas:i. How in the world do you remove the valve cover? (4 bolts below the ignition leads?) ii. Do I need to remove the spark plugs first? and other wiring? ii. If I do remove the valve cover is there going to be an abundant volume of oil threatening to devour me? lol iii. When I need to put it back on do I need to replace the head gaskets? iv. Any other information i need to know? Thanks for your time guys.  If all things go well i'll be definately making a how-to article on this =] -R

I sanded mine first...it's really smooth to touch now. I would sand it just as a precaution, it also helps clean it.
edit: while we're here, does anyone know how to remove the heatshield This post has been edited by Akimbo: Apr 21, 2005 - 2:15 PM -------------------- Sometimes we live to beat the odds.
